THE BROADER GENERAL AND THE
MILITARY BOARD.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-I trust that
| have not, in my communication of
yesterday, reviewing the Water
house Military Bill, inadvertently
trod on the corns of "A Volunteer. 1"
certainly did not intend to do any.
thing except criticize the Act in
question upon its merits. | am
satisfied on the whole not to be able
to identify the person who write S
under the rather inspiring nom DE
plume "a Volunteer" but | may
venture, perhaps, the guess that he
is lawyer, from his intimate ac-
quaintance with the well recognized
rule of the guild, uhen you hare
nothing TO say or yoar client abuse
tie opposite attorney.
There seems to he nothing in the
effort of "A Volunteer" which re-
quires notice except the statement
that Sin England, Canada, the Aus
tralian Colonies, and in those of the
United States most noted for COM
plete and efficient National Guard
associations (including Massachu-
sets, New York, Michigan and Ca
lifornia, which are among the most
advanced in that direction) almost
everything pertaining to military
discipline, courts martial, interior
economy, etc. etc., are left entirely
to regulations promulgated by the
respective commanding officers of
those forces under provisions in their
several Militia and Defence laws
similar in effect to Section 10 of Mr..
Warehouses; Military Bill. This is
also true of the United States and
British regular armies" IT "A
Volunteer" will refer to the Acts of
Pan lament lie will find over twelve
pages devoted to the establishment
Of courts martial and to provisions
for proceedings, punishment and
other matters appertaining to such
courts martial, in great detail. The
articles of war of the United States
of America enacted by Congress
contain forty-five articles devoted to
the same subject, besides other en-
actments relating to courts martial
not in the articles of war. The gen.
eral statues of Massachusetts have
three and half pages upon the estab-
lishment and MANAGEMENT of
courts martial ofNIiltia, while
the Californialaw after briefly
authorizing the establishment
of courts martial of its militia
adds courts martial appointed I'M
der the provisions of this Act, shall
be organized in like manner and be
subject to the rules and regulations
governing courts martial in the
United States Army" And yet "a
Volunteer" says that the provisions
of the laws of all these countries re-
lating to courts martial, ETC., are
similar in effect to the lines of Sec
ton 10 of the Waterhouse bill. If
this is so the Individual who drafted
Section 10 is very remarkable for
his abilities of concentration of
language.
The fact is, there is no civil
lied country under the sun
which places in the hands of mill
tary officer or Board, the indefinite
powers for affecting the whole status
of troops that is so recklessly given
by Sections 4 and 10 and other parts
of the bill in question.

there on the night train with his prisoner

cholera,s March.

LoNDos Sept ls.--The cholera outbreak
In Italy continues to increase in serious
ness. The alarm is made greater by the
fact that the disease is OF more virulent
type than that OF recent years. This is at
tributcd by experts to the failure to com
plctcly stamp out the germs OF former cpl.
dcuics, which has given an indigenous
and moro active character TO the scourge.
ROME Sept. 1s-Thc cholera returns for
to-day show IA new cases and 6 deaths in
Catauia, 40 cases 10 deaths in Naples, 4
cases 3 deaths in Palermo, 80 cases 21
deaths in Messina. The cholera epi-
demic AT Messina is OF the mcst violent
character, death in many cases ensuing
within an hour after the appearance OF the
disease The mortality is not confined 10
the lower classes. The epidemic has
reached the inmates Of the prisons. 1t is
reported that many new cases Of cholera
are occurring in Rome daily.

ST.. LOUIS, Sept. 15.-The ex- Confederate
reunion at Mexico, No., was attended by c
large number of soldiers yesterday, who
represented either side of the conflict.
About 10000 people gathered in the little
city of 1000 and overfowed its corporate
limits, but accepted of its bountiful hospi-
tality. A grand parade, with veterans Of
the successful side on the right OF the line,
societies and militia following and an army
of "Johnnies" bringing up the rear,
opened the exercises of the day. Banners
OF the President were flaunted to the
breeze on the side streets, but on the line
of march these were conspicuously absent.
In grove at the north Of the city, on5
hundred cattle had been barbceued, and
when the procession broke ranks the meat
was served to the visitors at a large table
convenient to the meat pits In the after
noon orations were delivered.

Curious Result OF Bounty on PralsIs
Dogs and Ground Squirrels.

Dogs and Ground Squirrels.
HELENA, MONT, Sept. ia special ses-
sion of the Fifteenth Assembly adjourned
last evening after a session of about three
weeks. Probably never before has it been
the case that prairie dogs and ground
squirrels necessitatcd a special session OF
the Legislature, but such is the case in
Montana. The Legislature last winter
authorized bounty of ten cents for
prairie dogs and five cents for ground
squirrels, and TO date the Territory has
paid for 69S,97l ground squirrels and 15s,-
100 prairie dogs, or total of over $4,000.
The bounty act had exhausted all the
money in the treasury, and was running
the Territory rapidly in debt. The Gov
ernor, with the permission of the Presi-
dent, called a special session and repealed
the law. Among other acts, Cascade
County was created, with Great Falls az
the county-seat.
